Photos of our Veiled Chameleon Xerxes

This is our Veiled Chameleon shortly after we bought her. She was about 3 months old in this photo. We purchased a female and named her Queen Esther. It was later discovered "she" was a "he" so we changed the name to Xerxes.

This is Xerxes currently; about 10 months old. Here he is waiting for the neighborhood Coopers Hawk to pick him and take him to lunch.

This was extremely helpful!! Thank you for sharing

I set my Govee digital Thermometer in the place where she would perch and waited until the reading settled out.

Will do. Thanks much

she is by the window but the temps inside the cage stay around 75 during the day. She has plenty of shade and comes and goes all day all over the enclosure. There's been no wheezing. She only does this when under the basking light. she will open her mouth for about a half minute to a minute...
